Besieged with questions about Sarah Palin's background, John McCain's campaign wants to make one thing emphatically clear: She's not a felon.

In 1993, Palin pleaded no contest to a charge of failing to register as a set gilnet permit holder. Such a license must be obtained in Alaska for commercial fishermen to use the underwater netting frequently designed to catch salmon.

At the time, Palin said she simply forgot to change the nature of her registration from a member of a fishing crew to an actual permit holder.

But the offense was inadvertently entered into an Alaskan district court as a felony.

The issue first arose in 2002 during Palin's gubernatorial race when some opponents seized on the charge. That year, Palin obtained an official letter from the Clerk of the court in Alaska's Third Judicial District.

"I am writing to advise you the data has been corrected in court records and on the state of Alaska's website to reflect your conviction as a violation," Cindy Roque wrote in a letter McCain's campaign shared with Politico.

According to court documents also shared, Palin, whose husband works seasonally as a commercial fisherman, was fined $1,000 and placed on probation for a year pending no further violations of fishing regulations.

Fishing violation... DUI from over 25 years ago... If this is all what you can come up about her than I feel very relieved. I think the fish did not suffer and I also believe that her husband got sober by now after 25 years.
It is truly remakrbale that we haven't seen such scrutiny when Obama was running in the primary against Clinton. Wright came relatively late, so did his shaddy business connections with Ayers and Rezko. But then again "did I mention I am black"?

it is a shame that american people don't see the game, liberal media trying to put most liberal, inexperienced, tied with terrorist president in the white house.
it is amazing how naive some of the americans.
the arab street is already celebrating the victory of osambama. i guess, will be letting the guard down and another 9/11 in planning smae story like the clinton time. what ever people think of bush he kept us safe, remember London, madrid, south asia etc
dah americans.

To all you payee McCain bloggers quite stealing my user ID to make post in my name.To make asinine statement to make it look like I support P.O.W. McCain and Baked Alaska.I DO NOT SUPPORT THE TWO LAIRS IN ANY WAY SHAPE OR FORM!

Palin ...
... was mayor of 6,500 people for six years before becoming governor of 680,000 people for 18 months (Karl Rove said three years as mayor of 200,000, four years as lt. governor of 7,600,000 and two years, eight months as governor of 7,600,000 wouldn't be qualified as VP -- Tim Kaine)
... hired a lobbying firm to get millions of dollars worth of earmarks for Wasilla
... supported the "bridge to no where" until Federal money dropped out and pushed the Alaskan cost to $380,000,000
... is against abortion even in cases of rape and/or incest including her own daughter
... is a member of the Pentecostal Dominionist movement (pseudomilitant theocracy)
... supports trophy hunting of endangered species
... has strong ties to the oil industry personally and through her husband
... had a reputation in Wasilla for using abortion and gun rights to attack former friends in LOCAL elections
... has said she doesn't know much about the Iraq War outside of the fact that the 'surge' happened
... wants creationism to be taught in public schools
... supports parents having the right to keep their kids out of required science classes they find offensive
... the list goes on and on

It seems like almost all the allegations against Palin are falling flat. You have to give credit to the lefty bloggers though, they did come up with a lot of "dirt" on Palin.
So far, none of it has panned out. Troopergate? After people hear about the death threats against Palin's own sister, I think people will be sympathetic.

Now, however, she is refusing to submit to questioning by Branchflower unless he and the legislative committee that appointed him agree to relinquish control of the investigation and turn it over to a state review board made up of three Palin appointees.

Hello, media. This is what's important. Are you being intimidated by the Republican goon squad from covering this?

Hey you stop using my name you liberal POS. And if the story was so big, why didn't anyone question whether or not it disqualified him from the office of President? At least, why didn't anyone on the liberal side question it when one of their own abused power to get his rocks off?

Roflmao...that's it? A 25 year old fishing violation, and a 202 year old DWI by her husband???...the Democrat party and their affirmative action empty suit are done. It's over. They have lost, Obama will be defeated in a landslide of Reagan-Mondale proportions.
The true party of HATE is the Democratic party and their OWNERS, the DailyKos and MoveOn.org

Right on Frederick, and keep on keeping on.
When will the liberal media stop talking about this fishing violation? It has been debunked already! But all I ever hear about is this fishing violation/felony smears and lies by the BO-loving media elites as they sip champagne lattes. SHUT UP ABOUT THE FISHING VIOLATION. No one cares. Where was the media scrutiny of Barack's fishing violations? Oh that is right, HE DOESN'T EVEN FISH!!! Why won't they cover that!?!
Once the tabloid press gets ahold of something like this fishing violation, it is like a twenty-four hour feeding frenzy...and if liberals keep attacking her for this fishing story, it just shows they are sexist. Would this question really be asked of a man? I think not.
Thank you for listening.

I saw the way Tucker Eskew was exposed for being a political hack by CNN's Campbell Brown. She destroyed him and it was really pathetic that he couldnt answer her simple, yet hard hitting questions. It just goes to show that you cannot truly defend Palin's record of mediocrity without sexism accusations, as we have seen here today.

Diggin' the dirt for Obama... The Palin backstabbing must be the launching of Obama's holier than though campaign... I just can't figure why McCain doesn't do the same? Palin might be just to easy a target. She's real people and has made mistakes... her accomplishments are merely greater than any woman of her age. Get a grip... You may have a couple of real people in the white house... not just media darlings.

Just a few more facts regarding Sarah Palin for you to digest:
1) She and her 'husband' are not legally married, having had the ceremony performed by an Inuit priest
2) For nearly three years, she was a member of the largest witch's coven in Anchorage
3) Her partner has withdrawn from his $300 per day heroin addiction to become a methadone addict.
4) She had two earlier children to a Native American man who paid nearly $100,000 for her to bear his offspring.
5) Has changed her religion many times - moving from Catholicism to Buddhism to Satanism to her current practice of Zoroastrianism.
6) Has an outie but submitted notarized paperwork to Senator McCain claiming it was an innie.
Just thought I'd join the circus!

This is of course minor and a non-story. But her association with the Alaska Independence Party
is serious. Her husband was a card carrying member, she was closely associated at the very least.
After everybody skewered Michelle Obama on a chance remark, why don't we get into what did Todd Palin do with the AIP? That's
bordering on treason! Secession from the Union, hello-o!

The saga of the Palins is ripe for the afternoon soap operas ... fishing violations, bridges to nowhere and trooper gate, not to mention the illigit. child in the oven....It's not so much these petty crimes and slips in judgment that are at stake with voters -- it's the stink of hypocracy .... and John McBush's incredible daft choice ... even Mutt Rummy would be better ...
Sarah, please go back to Alaska and its cronyism and leave us alone down here. Don

First, Palin fires people who don't support her (by firing her ex- brother-in-law). Second, she tries to have the librarian fired for not censoring books. Third, she thinks the framers of our constitution wrote the Pledge of Allegiance. Fourth, she doesn't believe in global warming. Fifth, she doesn't believe in separation of church and state (wanting to teach creationism in public schools). Sixth, why is it okay for her church to invite and support a speaker who believes that the problems Israel has with the Palestinians is God's judgement against them. Seventh, why did she and her husband belong to a successionist party that preached HATE for America?
Oh yeah, Obama does have more experience and better judgement (While she was a point guard on a basketball team he was president of the Harvard Law Review) (He also sponsored more then 800 pieces of legislation while a senator in Ill.

IN JUST OVER 19 MONTHS, THE FAR LEFT NEWS, (what a joke, I should say the liberal media arm, cause it is NOT fair nor news), HAS NOT 1 SINGLE INVESTIGATION INTO THE TERRORIST TIES OF OBAMA AND WILLIAM AYERS. NOT 1 INVESTIGATION INTO OBAMA'S BLACK VALUES RADICAL AMERICAN HATING PREACHER, NOT 1 INVESTIGATION INTO OBAMA'S ASSOCIATIONS WITH THE CONVICTED CROOK RESZCO !!! NOT ONE !!! BUT EVERY MAJOR MEDIA OUTLET FOR THE OBAMANATION HAS REPORTERS AND INVESTIGATIONS AND SMEARS AND RADICAL COMMENTS FROM ALL IT'S REPORTERS AND SO-CALL EXPERTS SWIRLING AROUND LIKE SHARKS AT FEEDING TIME ON SARA PALIN AND HER DAUGHTER !!! CAN ANYONE SAY (with any honesty) THAT THIS IS FAIR COVERAGE ??? WHO HAS VETTED OBAMA ??? THIS IS A MOCKERY OF "tingly feelingas running up thier legs" !!! CAN ANYONE HERE BRAVE A COMMENT ??? HECK NO, THE POLITICO AS WELL AS THE NEW YORK TIMES AND ALL MAJOR TV IS AGAINST THE REPUBLICANS AND FOR THE HARD FAR LEFT LIBERALS, IF YOU DISAGREE, PLEASE SHOW ME ONE SINGLE INVESTIGATION BY THE POLITICO, THE NY TIMES OR ANY NETWORK THAT HAS INVESTIGATED AND VETTED OBAMA, JUST ONE !!!

SO OBAMA WILL LEAVE US NEUTURED !!! WAY TO GO LEFTISTS !

Crips & Bloods for McShame/Swalin! We can unite on this one. These people are dope! Underage, out of wedlock pregnant daughter (I know she be willin'!), Gun totin - now she straight up rob the government as VP, trash talkin' - damn momma got mouth and she look good! Wow, I'm dreamin' maybe she'll give us gangbangers our own state when the USA is dissolved into hell (literally, and figuratively). Go McShame handle your business in the Oval office with Palin (you know she'll put out).

I think that the Alaska Department of Fish and Game were acting in a sexist manner by persecuting Palin. How dare they issue her a citation just because she is a woman? They wouldn't have placed her on probation if she was a man.

BFD!!! Obama's toiletbowl called Politico posts yet another piece of trash that is non-news.
Tomorrow POlitico will post if the Palins brusth their teeth 2 or 3 times a day - because it's a matter of Character.
Politico - fired hasbeen hack journalists from dinosaur print media.

By his own admission, Barack committed a felony for possesion of cocaine and crack cocaine, He just didn't caught. Were's all the hoppla about that from the mainstream press. Oh yeah, that's right, he was young back then and can't be held resonsible for a mistake he made as a young adult. What hypocrosy. Were's the full vetting of someone who's running for the top office in the land by the press and TV. We know very little about Barry.. The media should get busy doing it's job on the real issue of who Barack Obama really is.

I like how Republican's continue to harp on Obama's "connections", even after such attacks have proved to be "misleading", and how those same Republicans can't seem to remember Mccain's relationship with Keating.

Leave it to the sleazeball Obamanazi's to dig up something so trivial as Sarah Palin not getting a gillnet permit renewed. They're really getting desperate. Barack Obama's 20 year history of being a member and supporter of a white--hating and America--hating cult TUFC Church and their, and his, love for the likes of Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan though they and the Democrap Party--controlled MSM want to forget about and censor.

Dimocrats are quite the fools for having invested so much of their time in this fishing license smear. All the Daily Kos Kommunists have not been able to shut up about fishing license, fishing license, fishing license. It is now blowing up in their faces. This is the best you can do?!? If this is the only scandal they can dig up in five days of looking, it is mooseburgers in the White House come November!

I was laughing at the people who stated that this and the DWI were the democrats ONLY issues on Palin. Thses are indeed small stories; however...:

-Federal investigations for Trooper gate and abusive powers!

-Being for the Bridge to Nowhere, then against it(not to mention leading a 527 group that helped nominate one of the most corrupt Alaskan officials in the states history).

-Being involved with an anti-American, pro-secession party.

-An insane household that lacks morale fiber (as she can't even manage her own household, let alone the nation).

-Palin lacking experience, as the #2 spot could very well indeed be tapped to lead with an elderly #1 at the wheel!

-Claiming to have always been against earmarks, even though she's for them!

-Physically being present for a sermon that essentially stated that terrorists in Israel were doing God's work!

The democrats have managed to define Palin without even lifting a finger! Had McCain vetted her properly or had gone with a more stable VP pick (Fiscal master Romney, perhaps?), this would have all been avoided!

One may wonder why the gill nets that Palin illegally used are regulated at all. What, indeed, are the implications of using gillnets whether legally or illegally?
Gillnets are heavily regulated because, while effective in catching fish, they are known to oceanographers as "walls of death" and are responsible for at least 85,000 inadvertent marine mammal (dolphin, whale, seal, etc) deaths annually.

Hey Johnny this is why you are suppose to look into the potential candidates background BEFORE you select them... I suggest you look to see whether or not she is on any sex offender lists, or perhaps you might want to see if she has ever served time for murder.lol Just a couple suggestions to help you out. WTF... this **** never stops with this women.
